Support Your Vision — Even While You Sleep
MacuRest™ is the only AREDS2-inspired eye supplement built for nighttime use — pairing complete macular nutrition with melatonin for overnight retinal repair and a gentler 25 mg zinc dose you can comfortably take every day.
Formulated by Dr. Louis Michaelos, D.O., a practicing third-generation ophthalmologist with 20+ years of clinical experience, MacuRest combines the macular nutrition of AREDS2 with melatonin and B-complex vitamins to support your retina around the clock.
📋 The clinical evidence behind MacuRest:
The AREDS2 formula is supported by a 5-year, 4,203-patient National Eye Institute trial showing a 25% reduction in AMD progression. MacuRest's melatonin addition is supported by a 2024 JAMA Ophthalmology study of 100,000+ patients showing significantly lower AMD progression rates in melatonin users.

Key Ingredients
- Lutein — 10mg — concentrates in the macular pigment to filter blue light and protect photoreceptors
- Zeaxanthin — 2mg — pairs with lutein in the central macula where vision is sharpest
- Vitamin C — 500mg — antioxidant protection for retinal and lens tissue
- Vitamin E — 400 IU — protects retinal cell membranes from oxidative damage
- Zinc — 25mg — supports vitamin A metabolism in the retinal pigment epithelium
- Copper — 2mg — balances zinc intake to prevent deficiency
- Melatonin — 5mg — supports overnight retinal repair and restful, non-habit-forming sleep
- B-Complex Vitamins — support cellular energy metabolism and optic nerve health
Why 25mg Zinc Instead of 80mg?
The AREDS2 clinical trial used 80mg zinc — but high-dose zinc causes gastrointestinal side effects in a significant number of patients, including nausea, stomach upset, and taste disturbance. These side effects are one of the most common reasons people stop taking their supplement consistently.
MacuRest uses 25mg zinc, a dose selected by Dr. Michaelos for daily tolerability. A supplement you can take comfortably every evening for years is more protective than one you stop taking after a few weeks.
Who Is MacuRest For?
MacuRest is designed for adults seeking comprehensive macular support, those with a family history of AMD or macular degeneration, and anyone looking for an ophthalmologist-formulated eye supplement with built-in sleep support. Always consult your eye care professional to determine what supplementation is appropriate for your specific situation.
Directions
Take 2 capsules each evening with dinner. Evening timing optimizes absorption of fat-soluble nutrients like lutein and zeaxanthin, and aligns the melatonin component with your body's natural overnight repair cycle.
